About The Drgn Design Brand
About Drgn Designs
From leather-scented memories to forged fantasy masterpieces, welcome to the hoard.
In the shadowed corners of the workshop, where dragons dream and leather breathes, you’ll find Drgn Designs—the solo brand forged in fire, focus, and fierce imagination by Sir Drgn himself.
Born in the chaos and creativity of the Renaissance Faire life, Drgn Designs began not with a business plan, but with a craving—for leather, legacy, and something truly magical. Raised in the biker scene of the 1980s, where the scent of leather lingered like incense in every shop and on every jacket, Sir Drgn’s love of the material started long before he ever picked up a blade or needle. The texture, the strength, the soul of leather called to him from childhood.
It wasn’t until he joined his partner, Tynk R. Belle, in vending at local festivals that the spark truly ignited. After dabbling in pyrography, laser engraving, and vinyl, it was leather that captured his heart—and wouldn't let go.
But Drgn Designs didn’t start with a coin pouch or a simple belt. It began with a dream mask—a fierce, elaborate dragon helm originally crafted by Dieselpunk.ro. After years of searching in vain for someone brave enough to tackle the pattern, Sir Drgn did what all good dragons do: he made it himself.
With only two months of practice, he brought the beast to life.
(Behold his first major creation:)
This mask became his proof, his symbol, his rallying cry:
“If I want it bad enough, I can make it.”
The Craft
Every piece under the Drgn Designs banner begins with a spark—an idea born of fantasy, Norse myth, or gothic splendor. From there, the process unfolds like a sacred rite: patterns are drafted or purchased from fellow artisans (to support the wider craft), leather is carefully chosen and cut, dyed and engraved, punched, tooled, and sewn. Most of it by hand—except for the most precise elements, which he entrusts to the searing accuracy of laser.
The creations range from belts, bags, and bracers to tarot cases, journal covers, armor, and amazing leather masks. Each one designed not just to be worn, but to become part of you.
The Feel
Drgn’s goal is simple: he wants you to pick up a piece and say, “Where have you been all my life?”
Every item is made to fulfill a need you didn’t know you had. A sense of identity. A sense of place. That feeling when something you wear feels like home.
The art is mystical. It’s strong. It whispers of other worlds.
The Maker
Sir Drgn doesn’t craft in silence. He works best with anime humming through his headphones, his ADHD soothed by motion and sound. His style? Mythical. Powerful. Rooted in fantasy but worn by real people—warriors, wanderers, and weirdos alike.
His favorite piece? The dragon mask that started it all.
His dream? To retire from the 9-to-5 and roam the lands faire to faire, bringing his wares to every reveler, rogue, and rennie across the realm.
Yes, he takes commissions. Yes, he’ll work with you to make something legendary.
And yes—when you buy from Drgn Designs, you’re not just getting gear.
You’re joining the hoard.
The Legacy
If Drgn Designs were a character at a faire, it would be an emerald-scaled dragon, curled around a hoard not of gold, but of good people and great friends. A creature crafting magic for those who dare to feel seen, armored, and alive.
And when you walk away from his booth, Sir Drgn wants you to feel two things:
-
That your treasure has found its rightful owner.
-
That the maker truly cared.
Because yes, Drgn Designs is a business.
But it’s also a promise
